(HUFFINGTON POST) — When tragedy strikes, how does a community recover? And how do we prevent another one from happening? When “thoughts and prayers” just aren’t enough, what else is there? In a world where it seems less and less makes sense every day and more and more unthinkable decisions are being made, how do we not only survive, but actively challenge the oppression and suffering that we face simply because of who we are?

My answer? We must rededicate ourselves to the fight for nothing short of radical queer liberation for all people regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
